You hog the covers. Just sayin....

Wanna come over and help me turn $78 into $234?

Reran the numbers... In summary, from February to October: The average incall rate is up to $231, average outcall rate is up to $255 and average blended rate is $246... up about 10%. Position of "Ask me" saw the largest rate increase - from $163 to $215 though the low number of profiles probably makes that statistically ambiguous. Tops/versatiles/bottoms all went up about the same with bottoms slightly higher. The increase was even across ethnicity's, in/out and visitors/home. For grins I matched rate to size.... the median profile size is 8 inches. For the profiles stating under the 8 inch median the rate is $39/inch; for the profiles of 8 inches or more the rate is $27/inch. I'm not sure any meaningful conclusions can be drawn from this other than a setup for a punchline. This is all of questionable statistical significance because the data is so fluid, with guys coming and going, so I wouldn't tie anything of importance to it.

My take is that all things being equal, I'll stick with SPG's. There is a nice St. Regis in a city where I travel allot and it's better than any of the Marriott offerings (and they don't ask any questions when I have guests). More generally, the only plus-side for Marriott is SPG Gold's will get the Marriott lounge access/breakfast (there's some debate about if this benefit extends to Ritz Carltons; they're really snotty about their concierge floor rooms). There's a discussion about early experiences at --> http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/starwood-starwood-preferred-guest/1793320-spg-members-post-your-marriott-stay-experiences-after-linking-your-account.html Allot of these guys are Platinum... out of my league. I suspect your info is correct - best to use the SPG points you have in 2017.

Personality, personality, personality: RM Profile text, interview answers, informal G-rated pics and, best of all, G-rated videos. Check out this guy's five videos and interview. It has about as much personality as I think possible without a room of screenwriters and a video crew. I tried pretty hard to meet him, despite the lack of any reviews or experiential info, simply because his profile was outstanding. I contrast this with a profile with 5 pictures of a penis and "Hung. Heavy shooter. Up for just about anything - HMU. No blocked calls."

Excellent observation! Apparently there is a way to prevent your profile from appearing in search results yet remain active. Blake has a current profile on M4RN but I've never seen his RM profile.

Very much a babe! I'm keeping an eye on him... his profile says he's been active since June 7 yet only appeared in Atlanta within the last couple of weeks. There's a pattern of new guys popping up for a few weeks then disappearing; I'm not sure what's going on with them but hypothesize that they start escorting and decide it's not their thing. I'm hesitant to hire someone until they have some time under their belt and, preferably, word of client experience. Hiring someone who really doesn't want to be there is a pretty unpleasant experience.

* GASP !!! *

These are all very hot (well, most of them ) but the thing that strikes me about this thread is what is on the other side of the camera. It feels a little pervy to surreptitiously take pics of people without their knowledge, much less consent.

I just linked my accounts and my SPG gold transferred to my MR status as advertised. That said, I'm trying to figure out how this is ultimately beneficial to me as primarily SPG. It means that I'll be competing with all the Marriott gold members for room upgrades. On the other hand, I'll get Marriott free lounge access and breakfast (at certain brands)... not a big deal to me. For the road warriors out there - any insight?

YIKES !!! Ooohhhh!!! You're gunna get it !!!

I've noticed the same thing - I've wondered if that is because it's easier to dash off a couple of sentences than to sit and think thru the contents of a review. I get lots of PM's inquiring about guys for whom I've submitted a review and it's really odd. I enjoy writing (positive) reviews - it allows me to relive the experience and think about all the wonderful elements of being with someone.

I had always been reticent to post a negative review - at first because I was a newb but then for the reason you mention. My calculus changed after a particularly unpleasant meeting with a guy who was a clear rip-off artist. I'm a bit more comfortable writing "satisfactory" reviews but take a couple of days to mull my opinions: did I have unrealistic expectations, is there some emotional element that is the true cause of the negative experience, is it simply a matter of chemistry, etc. When I do write the review I try to include only facts - no inferences - and be clear about the effect of what occurred. For example "John met me in his hotel lobby 10 minutes after the start time. I stepped on a used condom beside his bed. John ushered me out of his room 15 minutes before the end of our 2-hr time." (This actually occurred.) You can infer and assume lots of things but including only facts in a review that isn't going to be glowingly positive can help diffuse conflict, or at least keep any ensuing dialogue from degrading into a bitchfest. "John treated me like crap" isn't particularly helpful or likely to go well with John's 500 best friends. If a session wasn't good but there are no facts then there's likely an emotional element to my reaction and I do not write a review (but perhaps make a Forum comment that John's pictures are accurate and that he is who he says). There simply wasn't any chemistry. In the vast majority of cases I'm excited about penning a glowing review and add to the usual facts lots of inferences and opinions. Given that we're moving away explicitly detailed descriptions of physical encounters ("John rimmed me like a jackhammer in a chuck roast") I've begun describing how the companion made me feel emotionally: valued, desired, cared-about, elated, fulfilled, etc., This is basically answering the question I always ask myself before meeting someone new: how am I likely to feel after meeting this person. If someone takes exception to one of the handful of negative reviews I've submitted then we'll be discussing facts rather than opinions.

Anyone have any experiential info with Devin Dixon? There's an old thread with minimal info. He has an from 2012 on YouTube and a Twitter. There's also a fair bit of video done with Falcon, Lucas and Next Door Tinks (cute!).

Appears so

That's interesting - I'd have thought that boarding from the last row forward would be the most efficient. I recall Delta tried that for a time several years ago but stopped - I assume so they could give those with a loyalty status a perk that didn't cost them anything.

"DentuCream?! Thank you - I hate that feeling of a piece of food stuck between my teeth and gums!"

"You're welcome ma'am. Six grand children you say! And your apartment is in this block?"

Be careful with the Pope. I rented my beach condo to a rep from The Wholly Sea (like an AirBnB for beach properties) last December and they trashed the place. The guy said it was just going to be a man, woman and baby and maybe their donkey (which I nixed because of our no pet policy) with that 3 other guys might drop by. 13 guys showed up! Food everywhere, all the sinks, toilets and bathtubs were filled with wine, there were dead fish all over the pool deck and some kind of reddish stains by all the doors. The only good part is that I had an old 36" flat screen TV that was dead that suddenly started working again.

Damn Brian - I'm so sorry... I can only imagine how hard this must be. I'm thinking about you big guy. <3

Hmmmm - Hunter Fluid

Yes, absolutely... There's so many thoughts and feelings that can be expressed thru kissing it IS like a conversation.

Oh my... well, I wish I looked as good as he does now when I was half his age.

Is this the same guy from 10 years ago? http://www.chaosmen.com/showgal.php?g=content/CM/video/2006/53-jonatan_skyler_wrapped/349/7_1&s=34
